CHL Carry @ State Fair - Fox Webpoll

[WillieD]

I was just about to post this same thing after seeing the story on the news. Obviously I voted "NO".

Also, I had vote number 156.

[L8RG8R]

Ha! One lady at the fair was asked what she thought...

"I think thats very scary to think that people are out here with guns..."

The poor sheeple...

Make it a cold link so they do not see texaschlforum as the referrer.

Nice to see Jim Dark as their "sample CHL".

Very simplistic reporting, though. Opinions about whether people "should be allowed" to carry guns to the fair are meaningless. I don't like how they made it sound like the TSF folks were just being benevolent towards CHLs, instead of explaining how they have no choice but to allow CHLs to carry there.

Cue Frankie.

I was number 426 and it is still running 84% to 15%.

Do they have that video online? I can not seem to find it on their website if they do.

EDIT: They are replaying the video on their 9:00 newscast.

[NguyenVanDon]

I guess no one has posted the video yet, so I'm gonna go ahead and post for the guys that haven't watch it yet. Enjoy!

BTW, that lady and that gentleman comment was pretty amusing ...

I saw the video and thought I saw one of the gentlemen being wanded pull a badge out of his billfold rather than a CHL. I may be wrong as it was very quick but seems strange that they would put that on the air if they were trying to give this coverage a negative slant. I think they are just typical "news" people. As such they fall into the stereotype of reports and are mostly ignorant of the law and simply want to "create" news rather than report news.

By the way, I did vote (twice).

[srothstein]

As of 10:25, 84.33% say no out of 1123 votes.

[Greybeard]

I've been in class all evening and just now voted. The way I interpret the current resluts is that 85 per cent answered that CHL folks should not be restricted.

[Dragonfighter]

I don't like the "Even with a CHL" clause, it places those of us in favor of CHLs carrying in the position of having to vote for ANYONE carrying.

Well, I am in that position. I think that you should[/b] be able to carry without a CHL. Call it a second amendment thing.
